Why the ZMW to USD rate changes
The Zambian Kwacha to US Dollar exchange rate is not fixed. It moves with supply and demand for each currency, interest-rate decisions by the central banks that issue them, inflation, commodity prices and the general appetite for risk in global markets. Most emerging-market currencies are priced through the US dollar, so a strong or weak dollar day usually shows up in the ZMW to USD rate too.
The rate on this page is the mid-market rate: the midpoint between buy and sell prices on the global market, updated about every 30 minutes. Banks and transfer services add a spread and fees on top, so the ZMW to USD rate you are offered will usually be lower than the figure here. Use it as the benchmark to judge any quote.
